It's an unedited podcast from Life Is Easy Book with Patty and Sal to Psyche 21T during this quick 6-minute overview. Beginning mid-May, so next week, Sal also known as Rob Netzel, is leading his new Podcast titled Psyche 21T. Patty will join him periodically as a guest, but for the most part, Rob's got this! His endless thought provoking topics will be brief and keep you coming back for more. This show will evolve with listener participation. Remember folks, none of us can run from ourselves, so ... the best way to live in harmony is to COMPLETELY know ourselves, understand how that translates to today, fall in love with ourselves, and pay that love forward! You're in for a ride. Take it at your own speed.

Join Patty and Sal as they stumble through the first Life Is Easy podcast of 2026, once again, tackling topics with hopes of simplifying the noise. Peeling back the onion. It's not January 1 - but small stuff had to happen first in order for these two siblings to talk about how easy life is. The headlines rant about war, Jesus and Easter. And this episode comes with a special request, Patty and Sal want to hear what you think this year's closing salutation should be. Share your thoughts.

Wrapping up the 2025 year, Patty and Sal suggest giving the gift of time to those we care about. Even to those we barely know. This is something that will truly fill our buckets as well as theirs! It's simple. It goes a long, long way. Because ... it means the most! Patty shares a story that stopped her in her tracks. So many of us are frantic with busyness and all that really matters to people is to know people care. Stop. Listen. Engage. This is a gift. One that will be cherished for a long, long time.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good year!

Can AI really replace the human contribution to society? Not completely and we all need to hold onto that idea. Every single individual brings something to the table and started out in this world with a clean slate. It is time to appreciate people and differing thoughts and opinions and to stand up for ourselves. We, as a people, make a priceless contribution to this world somehow, in someway, for someone and that matters more than anything. We all matter. Embrace Life Is Easy and really find out out why and how you matter.

Let thy mind soothe the body and thy body soothe the mind. Patty and Sal apply practicality to Mind, Body and Spirit and it is with great balance that every single one of us are able to discover a healthy way of living. The alternative is uncomfortable and the steps start with you. Wellness is the new buzz word and we congratulate everyone out there getting on board. Disease in the body isn't just that; it's a reflection of deeper imbalances. There is NOT a one-size fits all answer; that's impossible! Life Is Easy when we completely understand ourselves ... mind, body and spirit.

In response to recent events, Patty and Sal talk about finding the most important components to what higher education truly is. It's something more than just a degree. They believe it's the ability to see all perspectives from your fellow man and for this, all people become scholars of a free life.

Take 12 minutes to hear how Patty and Sal turn the ole Catch 22 upside down. Have you ever thought about how this plays out in a conversation with a friend, a coworker, a neighbor or your child? What is it that we are really trying to accomplish? Yes, Life Is Easy when we each know ourselves to a greater degree and it's possible.

Patty and Sal tackle Quiet Cracking and AI and what this phenomenon is creating for us as a society in the workplace, at home and in general. Things are changing quickly. We all need to know the basics and that starts with us needing to truly KNOW ourselves! How do we facilitate growing as human beings and building relationships if we're working for computers?

This is an episode about predictions. It's football season and so many of us are guessing anad betting on who's going to win the game. We like to think we're right; what if every team had the other one's playbook? What if you had your own? And you were able to use it to predict or forecast your future. Build the best relationships, pick the career that brought you the most balance? Patty and Sal go into how, when using Life Is Easy as a playbook of your very own, you can have those advantages. Spend 11 minutes with these two authors and better understand what's being said when you take a timeout!

Why does it seem like everything is going so fast? Don't most of us remember learning some basics like quality over quantity? Do it right the first time. Practice makes perfect. Now it just seems like a race. To where? And for what? Patty and Sal touch on the million dollar thought ... is this pace always necessary for everyone? In every situation and who should be peeling back the layers of the onion? The answer - all of us! In our own fashion, at our speeds and it may even be more fun with an accountability partner. A roommate. A sister. A spouse. A best friend. Go for it!
